what you wrote to me, Maitriya

You sent me something so beautiful —
I want you to know I read every single word.

"

It was valentine when we officially started this relationship.
It was valentine when we both just hold our hands.
It was valentine when we had first kiss.
It is valentine when ur every chotu chotu gesture make me fall in love with u.

The most luckiest person is me — who has got a handsome gentleman like u who handles me with care.

No relationship can be as like Samu and Maitru. 🧿

— Maitriya, 14th February 2026 💓
you said something so beautiful

Valentine's Day isn't just today
it's every moment with you.

🤝

It was Valentine when we held hands for the very first time — and neither of us let go.

💋

It was Valentine when we had our first kiss — and the whole world went quiet.

🌱

It was Valentine when we officially started — the day I became the luckiest person alive.

⛈️

It was Valentine every time we stayed close through the hard things — because we always chose each other.

🫂

It is Valentine every single day that I get to call you mine, Maitru.

from my heart to yours "

You said you're the luckiest to be called Samu's forever.

But Maitru — you have it backwards.

I am the one who gets to wake up knowing that you chose me. मला तू खूप आवडते —
आणि हे शब्द कमी पडतात.
That someone as warm, as beautiful, as real as you — looked at everything I am and said yes, him.

That's not luck. That's a miracle.



the beginning

When it was all new and uncertain and terrifyingly wonderful. You were there — patient and warm.

the fights

Tevdhi bhandna tar chaltat na — navra bayko madhe. 🤭
But love always won. It always will.

the distance

Miles between us, but somehow closer than ever. Distance didn't pull us apart — it made every moment feel like everything.

the chotu chotu moments

The small gestures. The random texts. The random kiss emojis that melt all anger instantly. Those are the real valentines.

right now

Our first Valentine's Day. The beginning of a lifetime of proving you made the right choice.

You said this relationship taught you patience.
It taught me everything.

🔥
We always chose each other
Through every bad day, every misunderstanding — we always came back. Every single time.
🌊
The shattered pieces
You said you love every part — even the broken ones. That's the most beautiful thing anyone has ever said to me.
😴
Falling asleep on call
Your face calm and unguarded on that screen. I don't think you know how safe that made me feel too.
🫂
You handle me with care
Caring for you doesn't feel like work, Maitru. It feels like the most natural thing in the world.
for you, on the distance between us

Distance is not taking us apart.
It's making us reach further for each other.

अंतर असलं तरी, मन नेहमी तुझ्याजवळच असतं 💓

We've chosen silence, discipline, and the same dream.
Not as pressure — as hope.

One day, no screens between us.
Just us, and all the time in the world.

my promises to you, Maitru

01

I will choose you — no matter how things go. Every single time. Without hesitation.

02

I will handle you with care — always. Your sensitivity is not a burden. It's what makes you beautifully you.

03

I will ask if you've eaten, if you're okay, if you're taken care of — because care is presence.

04

I will be your protected world. So you always have somewhere safe to land.

05

I will be your Samu. Forever and ever.

the beginning of everything 9. The age I first saw you.

3rd standard. Age 9. I saw you and something shifted —
I didn't have words for it then.

Then September 2021 arrived. 8th standard. Same tuition.
And the boy who had quietly loved you for five whole years
finally got to call you mine.

That's not a love story, Maitru.
That's a destiny.

together since September 2021 calculating...
a message from Samu

I recorded something.
Just for you.

press play, Maitru 🥺

कारण तू माझी मैत्रू आहेस 💓

from your birthday, a little late — but never forgotten

I wrote you something on your birthday.
I want you to read it again, here.

01

Before you, I didn't understand what love really meant. With you, I learned it's deeper and quieter than attraction. Your kind heart changed the way I see everything.

02

I know you overthink, and your biggest fear is me leaving. I see that part of you — the one that feels deeply, cries instead of hiding, loves infinitely. I see it and I stay.

03

The puri bhaji you love even though I don't. The way you go "olelaloloelalo" suddenly. Those little moments stay with me more than any grand gesture ever could.

04

When you heard about your grandpa, I was the one you called without thinking twice. I will always answer. I will always be that call.

You said you want to sleep on my lap, pappi geychiye, hug karaychay, cuddle karaychay.

Kar na please study — aani mag saglya karuyat together. 🥺

Until then: even in the quiet, even in the break —
you matter deeply to me. Always.

Happy Birthday, IAS Maitriya Sachin Gulave.
Always hold your head high. 💓

Maitru
14th February 2026 · our first valentine's day
always, only, forever —
Maitriya.
मला तू खूप आवडते 💓

I loved you at 9, without knowing what love was.
I love you now, knowing exactly what it costs.
And I will love you at every age still to come.

Tere hawaale, Maitru —
main aur meri poori zindagi.

— Samuuu, tumhara, hamesha 🥺
No relationship can be as like Samu and Maitru. 🧿
